EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the momentous Fall of Babylon by Cyrus II in 539 BC. The ancient city of Babylon, located in present-day Iraq, was conquered by the Persian king Cyrus II, also known as Cyrus the Great. This illustration beautifully captures the chaos and destruction that ensued during this historic military invasion. The image showcases a towering structure collapsing amidst a war-torn landscape along the banks of the mighty Euphrates River. The engraving technique used adds depth and texture to every detail, bringing to life this pivotal event from ancient history. Babylon, once a thriving center of civilization and power, now lies defeated under Persian rule. This woodcut print not only serves as a testament to the might of Cyrus II but also highlights the rich cultural heritage of Mesopotamia. As we gaze upon this antique lithograph, we are transported back thousands of years into an era where empires clashed and civilizations rose and fell. It is a poignant reminder that even great cities can crumble under the weight of conquests. Nastasic's artwork masterfully captures both the grandeur and tragedy associated with such historical events. Through his skilled handiwork, he immortalizes this significant chapter in human history for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and reflect upon.
